35mm Rangefinder Cameras
Range finder cameras are also called "Leica Style" cameras. On one hand you have the cheap Leica copies like the Russian FEDs and on the other hand you have excellent quality cameras like the Kodak Retina series. Although not as popular as they once were, this type of cameras is still being produced and although expensive (or because they are expensive?) still have a strong base of enthousiasts. Main advantage is that these cameras usually don't make a lot of noise when taking a picture. The shutter is either in the lens or a cloth shutter is being used. No strong movements inside when pressing the shutter button and no moving mirrors. Great for "stealth" photography and great in places where you don't want to be heard taking pictures. |
